This is a great location if you are looking to relax. The staff members are extremely helpful and friendly. Had one issue and they looked into it immediately. During hurricane season the restaurant in site I closed . The front desk gave me option to order in. Not far from the airport. Nothing is walking distance. The people they are for drivers are amazing as well. Very beautiful.

The Island View was charming, the views were fantastic, and the staff were friendly and attentive! We had an earlier morning and they were very kind to make us a breakfast to go. Food was great! If I had to come up with any complaint it would be that the pool (shaded for a good portion of the day) was a bit chilly, but my husband didn’t mind that.

Lovely property with a beautiful view. Very comfortable and clean. Lots of steps so bad knees beware. A bit off the beaten path so you are inclined to eat at their restaurant. The food was excellent, but it is fixed price menu and quite expensive. Breakfast is included and very good. Would definitely stay there again.
